Thanks for ignoring the question entirely. Useful that.-The issue at hand from our last entry:-> > Trying to get a better grasp of your positions. I'm going to assume you have either read Dawkins's 'The Selfish Gene' or have access to a library. What is it about the process outlined in the second chapter (The replicators) that you find implausible?

> I've read The God Delusion. Shapiro is bypassing Dawkins, the reason why the Altenberg 16 met two years ago. Neo-Darwinism is on its last legs. To my mind Dawkins is bombastic old hat. Shapiro is the future.-I couldn't be more clear. I haven't read that book or chapter. Summarize it and I'll answer. My previous entry tells you my position from the current science literature. I suggest you become acquainted with it. Remember, I believe in evolution, but the old DArwin explanations and the new ones (which are shoe-horned into the old concepts) are flat out wrong when compared to the current findings.-It is apparent to me that first life forms had most of the genetic mechanisms we see now. How it started that way is totally unknown. My guess is a UI. What is yours?
